River path progress!

So while I was off gallivanting around Moab, some real improvements were made along the river path.  Now, it's not really the "path" per say, but improvements are improvements.  A local iron works company (can't remember their name) donated this....materials, labor, everything!

If you want to check it out it's just off East 2nd street.  It got the upgrade and attention because so many people are parking over here (by the automobile museum) and use the river path (and the bridge above it) to get to the baseball games.  So at least the stadium is giving back to Reno indirectly!

It used to be a wooden thing built from railroad ties and 2x6's for the railing.  In recent years the railing had collapsed and it was more dangerous than functional.  I have a picture somewhere I wanted to post for a before and after but after digging for it for 10 minutes I gave up!

So if you don't think things are looking up for Reno, you just have to look around a little bit.  The walking and biking facilities are growing every day, and Reno gets a bit friendlier for all of us living here!
